Boga Grip

In case any of you are wondering, or maybe you have a different experience? Aside from the built with german tank quality and being saltwater [/size]corrosion proof. It's like a precision measuring device as well![/size]I never really expected a simple spring scale to read very well. I'm sure t's better then a guess though! Especially not being linear across the whole scale. However my opinion is changed now. Seriously changed for good. I was setting the draw weight of a bow for a fella that I was helping. I happen to have a very accurate digital scale that is flawless as verified by the certified butcher scale where I deal in a meat business. My digital scale is as accurate as the officially sealed certified meat scale he has. While doing this, I happened to notice my boga grip in the boat where it was parked. I grabbed it and thought I would see just how accurate it was. Well...... stunned to say the least. I checked it every two pounds to 30 pounds the greatest error was at 18 lbs which it read 18.2lbs. That is 2/10 of a pound, I did not set the digital scale for ounces, just tenths. In most cases the weight was exact, those that were not exact would have the 0.1 digit flickering on and off. Up to 15 it was 100% exactly perfect. At 16 it was 16.1- at 18 it was 18.2, and at 19 it was 19.1 from there it was perfect the rest of the way to 30lbs. I used a sharpy to help highlight the lines on the yoga grip scale. It's not possible to be perfect because the resolution is tiny and in poor light hard to see. I did use a bright light good glasses, and held the line perfectly to my capability. I think it was done pretty good seeing that when I lined up the boga grip lines the best I could, the digital scale was measuring exactly the same.With care, good light, and possibly a kid with great vision, this Boga grip is dead on the money accurate. Maybe I got a good one and I'm just lucky. Anyone else check theirs? How close are your Boga grips?
